But Poison heal Gliscor with Knock Off can counter Chansey, With Protect it can heal up and avoid the seismic toss crippling, taunt to get rid of Chanseys annoying moves, and then have EQ to take away sizeable chunks while the chansey cant softboil. Also when toxicroak comes out then chanseys shall die No I didn't, I come up with it by myself :).

For Gliscor thing, that is one of a few pokemon that can fully counter Chansey along with Aegislash and most physical fighting types. However, on other physical attackers, they can be stalled out or may fear Toxic. Sometimes they cannot even 2HKO Chansey and then she can proceed to use Toxic and spam Soft-Boiled.

For example:

252 Atk Tough Claws Charizard-Mega-X Flare Blitz vs. 4 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 339-399 (52.8 - 62.1%) -- guaranteed 2HKO

Mega Charizard X will be stalled out by the Flare Blitz recoil. If it tries to use Dragon Dance, it will suffer from Toxic damage. So it is not a perfect counter.

252 Atk Garchomp Earthquake vs. 4 HP / 252+ Def Eviolite Chansey: 217-256 (33.8 - 39.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Another meta pokemon for example here. Even this powerful physical attacker fails to 3HKO Chansey and can be stalled out by Toxic. If it tries to use Swords Dance it will be stalled out by Soft Boiled + Toxic.

Other weaker attackers falls in this description ^^^

For special attackers, she can seriously beat more than 95% of them. The only two special attackers that Chansey fails to beat would be Gengar and its mega form. For this group of attackers, even if they try to set up, there is zero possibility of beating Chansey unless hax or being weakened.

+6 252 SpA Manaphy Scald vs. 4 HP / 252 SpD Eviolite Chansey: 222-262 (34.5 - 40.8%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

Chansey comes in on first turn, use Toxic, and stall it out with Soft Boiled and Seismic Toss. The only way that Manaphy can beat Chansey is by lucky Ice Beam freeze or simply hax.

Considering how anti-meta and much utility she offers, she stays A-.
